Im a huge fan of L4D. I have both for my 360 but would love to see them come to PS3 with extra content and better graphics. Why no love for PS3?? I would totally buy them both again.

Anyone know of any games out OR coming out that are zombie killing games? And nothing like zombies in COD or anything, I mean the read deal..:)

Im not expecting much from it. I played the demo of the one for 360 when it came out. Had full intension to buy it, but there were so many complaints about the same system that is cared me away from it. It got great reviews from people except the saving..

MAYBE the 2nd one will deliver the goods??

Valve does not like the PS3 so they stick to the PC and 360. I really don't care anymore after I played L4D 2 at a friends house. Yeah it is a good game but not great enough for me to care if it comes to the PS3 or not anymore.

But in this case it makes sense, unfortunately. Valve has a very small, dedicated team for PC/360. To get a team together for the development on PS3 would be very expensive and would take away valuable resources from their proven money-makers. They have stated they do not wish to do this. It seems that Valve is NOT hurting from this at all.

I agree with you. Sadly, this issue is always going to be around, and not even just Valve. There are always going to be those who want to develop certain games for certain or all systems.

Vavle loves ATI and they arent very good at porting, so how exactly do u propose they make the games with better graphics JUST for the ps3 when the general rule of thumb is that multi console games look better on 360 (Bayonetta, Resident Evil 5, Turok, etc). Only way to make it look better on the PS3 is a complete rebuild which isnt worth their time i am sorry.

I played the original L4D on the 360, and honestly think it's overrated, far too simplistic.

Valve only will develop for Microsoft I don't care much for Left 4 Dead. But some companies who are independently owned only develop for Sony like Sucker Punch Productions and Insomniac Games.

Hates playstation? don't quite see how they can hate playstation(sony)...please reply and explain? Well all i can say VanDammFan is that i guess the Valve-games goes under the category "Games for windows" but that can't be 100% right? guess some other OS can also have steam...so I would rather like to know Flame_Blade88's opinion there..

People say that Valve hates the PS3, but that's not 100% true. I've heard some of the game developers there would actually be interested in it. However, Gabe Newell (who pretty much IS Valve) will not have it. He basically refuses to even acknowledge that the PS3 exists. Kind of sad really since Valve is one of my all time favorite dev teams :(

I don't think we will get any kind of good zombie shooting type of game for PS3 in a while. Maybe, if valve finally does decide to bring L4D over. Well, that would be good.

VALVe has earned the clout that they have in the industry. That being said, you won't see VALVe products on the PS3 because of multiple reasons: - They are very small compared to the likes of EA, Epic, Capcom, etc. From a staffing standpoint, VALVe is much closer to an "indie" size of company than the mega-corps like EA, Activision, Ubisoft, etc. - Sony is well known and reputed for their corporate arrogance and contempt. Their lack of support or assistance in making the conversion of Source to the PS3, and the incomprehensibly difficult to use SDK's for the ps3, only served to frustrate the efforts of their staff. After all, how would YOU feel if something you were working on suddenly broke because of one new feature, or that something you expected to work without issue is now suddenly causing widespread problems, without any ability to trace it back to what is causing the problem? That's pretty much the summary of working with the ps3 sdk, or any of the ps3 compiler tools in linux.

Valve has the worst graphics engine next to Bethesda. Who cares. Valve suck anyway the only decent game they made was TF2. All their other games are bad, especially the nintendo 64 graphics.

Valve a small dedicated dev team? not. Look at their Steam market and their huge AAA titles released year after year. Clearly Valve are disregarding the PS3. Gabe Newell is a whore. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RNXIhccXLc Please just put this guy into L4D 3 and kill him.

EA is the publisher although its not listed on either of the boxes for L4D or L4D2. If Valve put them in charge of the port it would happen, EA knows how to develop on the PS3. Valve is just a bunch of lazy asses that won't put forth the effort to develop on PS3 "because the Cell's arcitecture is too complex",

Think it mostly stems from the hard time Valve had porting Orange Box to the PS3. It took them more time and resources than the 360, and still ended up with technical issues that the other versions didn't have.

Other companies that release multiplats usually develop the versions simaltaniously across all platforms and don't run into problems. Valve on the other hand has always been primarily a developer for PC. They build their games for the PC then decide to port it. The jump from a PC game to a 360 game is not much of a step, however from PC to PS3 on the other hand takes considerably more time and resources...and in this case they are probably figuring it's not worth their time and money to port it.

I'd be less surprised if the lack of Valve games stem from an idiot of a person in charge of what console gets the games. I've heard the "They're used to the PC" excuse as well as the "small team" one, but seriously. That personally sounds silly. Like the crap Enix feeds us as an excuse kind of silly. And yes, mods, I'm already used to some of you calling people fanboys for daring to have a different opinion about another console's devs.

well i hear sony london and media molecule are developing two different titles. lets hope one of them is a L4D killer.

valve hates the ps3 because they can't develop anything for it.
